英国自从2001年的口蹄疫之后也有大部分人退出绵羊养殖业，澳大利亚自从上世界90年代干旱之后羊毛价格都下降了。

Shy by nature, Sheep are not the most practical of people and, although well-mannered, they may occasionally suffer from "hoof-in-mouth disease" by saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

属羊的人天生比较害羞，不切实际，虽然彬彬有礼，但他们偶尔会突发“口蹄病”，在错误的时间说了不该说的话。
